At Women’s Health Group Chicago, we offer various forms of hormonal contraceptives, providing a range of choices tailored to our patients’ requirements and lifestyle. Proven effective in preventing pregnancy, these may include birth control pills that contain progestin-only or a combination of estrogen and progestin. We also provide contraceptive injections and patches which slowly release hormones into the body over time. Your health is paramount; thus, our team takes great care in discussing each option extensively with you to ensure maximum benefit while minimizing possible side effects.
Long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARC) are another reliable method offered by our clinic located near Uptown, Chicago. LARCs such as intrauterine devices (IUDs) or subdermal implants can prevent pregnancy for up to five years but can be reversed anytime if you decide to plan a family sooner than anticipated. With their high efficacy rate combined with very minimal user management required once they’re installed, LARCs have grown increasingly popular among women today.
For individuals keen on avoiding hormonal options altogether, barrier methods present an ideal choice and we’d be happy to provide guidance regarding this selection at Womens Health Group Chicago. Barrier methods halt sperm from reaching any eggs through tools like condoms, diaphragms or cervical caps – offering additional protection against sexually transmitted infections as well – an added advantage unique to this form of contraception.
For those considering permanent solutions for birth control, Women’s Health Group provides services within your reach here in uptown Chicago. Permanent birth control includes procedures like tubal ligation or vasectomy – ensuring peace-of-mind devoid of any pregnancy concerns – an ideal choice for individuals who have completed their families or are certain they don’t wish to have children.
In moments of unexpected need, we provide emergency contraception options. This can be life-saving when regular contraceptive methods fail or no birth control was used hence preventing unwanted pregnancies. Our dedicated team can not only help facilitate these resources within relevant timelines but also counsel and guide you through this understandably stressful time.
The journey towards understanding one’s body better is indeed empowering! At Womens Health Group Chicago, we advocate fertility awareness methods (FAMs) as a natural way to understand your cycle better – thereby managing reproductive functions more efficiently. FAM involves tracking symptoms throughout the menstrual cycle to identify fertile periods accurately and thus avoid conception during those times. With adept guidance on various techniques like temperature tracking, examining cervical mucus etc., FAM teaches women to tune in with their bodies’ changes beautifully over time.

I used to come to this office 10 years ago when I was pregnant and unfortunately had to leave do to insurance change. My appointment today was very informative I am so Grateful I made the change and am back. I know I’m in Great Hands.Posted on April SusmarskiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m a new patient and the care I received there from all of the staff really impressed me. I couldn’t be happier with Dr. Mike and I cannot recommend him enough! His review of my (and my family’s) medical history was so in depth that we actually covered more than I ever have with my regular doctor. He went above and beyond to say the least. His approach is preventative, instead of just waiting for an issue to arise. Needless to say, I know I’m in good hands there.Posted on Jacquline HollimonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My first visit was a great experience.
